I use Yasmin and have for quite a few years and it works well for me. Any other pills I tried gave me migraines or high blood pressure. I don’t have any side effects from yasmin either

Every pill reacts differently in every person but I didn't get on with yasmin. I ended up with worse cramps and my gastroenterologist told me that he'd seen it before with Yasmin and its banned in some countries. But please don't be put off as like I side some people are fine with it. Trial and error.

Hey, I used Yasmin for a while years ago and it worked best for me at the time. I got really fatigued and stopped it, but that obviously could just be the Endo itself.

I've been on Qlaira for almost a year now and it is definitely works best for me. Minimal side effects and made bleeding much lighter. I have lost weight whilst on it, but believe that is due to exercise rather than Qlaira. :)
